3 – Bungee Dock Lines

4 – Corner Bumpers

One of the most common ways of boats being damaged by getting dented is by the corners of the dock. If the angles are not correctly aligned when you are approaching the pontoon it can cause dents. The best preventive measure to counter this is by purchasing corner bumpers that are made out of rubber. They are not the most attractive but they do their job and will save you money from having to repair dents cause from your docking pontoon.
